Angharad Lee and Jennifer Lunn Spearhead Inspirational Collaboration with Huggard to Address Homelessness Through Musical Production
UWTSD’s Wales Academy of Voice and Dramatic Arts is proud to announce a groundbreaking collaboration with Huggard, Wales’ leading centre for people who are homeless and sleeping rough in Cardiff.
This unique partnership aims to combine the power of the arts with community engagement to address the pressing issue of homelessness. Huggard was set up more than 30 years ago in the city centre and is open 24/7. The charity has two onsite hostels, emergency accommodation and an Intervention (day) Centre. It provides a range of specialist services, including a Harm Reduction Service, which also operates around the clock.
The core of this collaboration lies in the upcoming musical production of “Honk,” based on the classic tale of the Ugly Duckling. Director Jennifer Lunn plans to set the musical against the backdrop of homelessness, shedding light on the challenges faced by those without a stable place to call home.
